OUR HARSH LOGIC: ISRAELI SOLDIERS' TESTIMONIES FROM THE OCCUPIED TERRITORIES
BREAKING THE SILENCE
The very name of the Israel Defense Forces, which many Israelis speak of as "the most moral army in the
world,"suggests that its primary mission is the defense of the country's territory. Indeed, both internationally and
within Israel, support for the occupation of Palestinian territory rests on the belief that the army's actions and
presence in the West Bank and Gaza are essentially defensive and responsive, aimed at protecting the country
from terror. But Israeli soldiers themselves tell a profoundly different story. In this landmark work, which includes
hundreds of soldiers' testimonies collected over a decade, what emerges is a broad policy that is anything but
defensive. Powerful and incontrovertible, Our Harsh Logicis a supremely significant contribution to one of the
world's most vexed conflicts.

THE PALEO SLOW COOKER
VARTANIAN, ARSY
The Paleo diet has been the latest health movement, taking the low carb diet a step further by eliminating grains
and legumes and eating only lean, grass-fed meat. In short they consume only what was available to ancient
humans or cavemen. The theory says that by eating what human bodies were designed to eat, people will be
healthier, have fewer illnesses and lose weight. In many cases, Paleo diet consumers are also fueling their P90X
or Cross Fit exercise routines, the two most popular fitness regimes in the country. The health benefits have
been supported by major studies. This is a popular trend much like the low carb diet. It is combined with the
great bookselling topic of slow cooking. While the cavemen didn’t have slow cookers, they certainly used slow
cooking techniques over fires which make the meals in this book one step closer to the origins and theory behind
the diet. The delicious dishes are as homey as they are healthy—and ready when you are.
